What to eat If there’s one order you need to try, it’s the Alsace pinot blanc paired with the kitchen’s tasty tarte Tatin. Petite’s savoury version of this feted tart sees a fine pastry casing topped with rings of buttery caramelised onion – savoury, sweet and salty, it’s a knockout match for the dry, subtly aromatic wine. Or keep it classic with a syrah, aka shiraz, and steak frites – either grain-fed wagyu bavette or grass-fed eye fillet with a puck of herby Café de Paris butter or a pepper and Cognac sauce, perfect with the bronzed frites.
Regular’s tipPetite’s two banquets ($85 and $115) are tailor-made for anyone allergic to decision-making. The “grande” gives diners access to more premium picks such as oysters and steak frites, but both are customisable according to dietaries and preferences. Fretting about getting moved on after two hours? When you book online, tick the “all night” box and the table is yours for the evening.
